So I create a points cloud using no 3d engines but one baked into flash:
import flash.display.Bitmap;
import flash.display.BitmapData;
var bmd:BitmapData = new BitmapData(400,400,true,0x00000000);
[Code]..
so its a wary simple code. how to make my points have 2 sides or be always face to wiever?
Using the syntax below I have created a movie clip called 'BALL' that bounces off from the left "x" and moves to the right side of the stage 'x.520' and bounces back to the start "x".

Can anyone think of a clever, low-impact way to draw a line that has a slight rough texture, as if drawn with a thick pencil on paper? The only two ways I can think of would be:
1) Knowing the two points that you're normally lineTo() to, you can can do a bit of math to draw a long, thin rectangle from those two points, and bitmapFill it with a textured bitmap with an alpha channel.
2) Knowing the two points, and then figuring out the distance between, you can draw a single circle at xxx intervals along that line's point, slightly varying the radius of the circle and the x/y value so it appears rough. Is there a simpler way someone can think of?
I made a 3d box using flash cs4 (ive made one using imported images as the sides and another one using vector siding made in flash) Both times, when ive finished the box and rotate it, sides will dissapear then reappear, depending on where the box was in its rotation. For instance, when you look at it dead on, the front side seems opaque, but when i start rotating it, the fron side, at certain angles, becomes transparent and you can actually see INSIDE the box thru the wall, then as it moves it becomes solid again. I am trying to make a presentation for work of a package, rotating 360 degrees on its y axis, but keep getting these odd disapearing sides.
View 1 RepliesI am new in Flash and Currently, I use Flash Pro CS5 to create new movies and modify old movies.
When I publish the movie I developed it comes with two white blank sides and i tried to change the Publish settings like Dimensions and Scale and publish the flash movie but the white blank sides did not disappear ?
I want that the flash movie has all the space of the dispaly window so that no white space appears when I view it in normal or maximized or full-screen view modes ?
How to convert 3d point to 2d point? I've found next formula in Internet(camera is situated in origin)
[Code]....
But these formulae give me strange result when z are less than zero(z<0) I need build line from A(100,100,100) to B (100,100;-100) As you can see these equations give really strange result when I try to convert B point in 2D dimension

View 8 RepliesI have a Flash component that links to a gallery, and I understand that I can create buttons to point to multiple galleries. (waiting too long for support from the suppliers).The User Guide says that I can use the following to create the connection:
myThumbnailer2.loadGallery(24);
That won't work, and it says that I need to include it in an onclipevent. I have no idea what i am doing and I was hoping someone could tell me what to script to get the text button I created to run this.
I am currently trying to create a function (or set of functions) that automatically fades in a button for each cue point in a video the first time a video loads. This way the buttons only become accessible once that point in the video has passed. The buttons should stay active once the video is loaded.
The code below is what I have so far. Essentially all I have managed to do is trace the name of the cuePoint. I believe what I need to do is somehow assign the cue point name to an object, pass that reference to the "fadeIn" function and run the "fadeIn" function.It is worth noting that the buttons I am fading in are already on the timeline, so I do not need to create them in code. I just need to reference them.

<s:LinearGradientStroke rotation="180" weight="2" caps="square">[code].....
This worked for the top line , But I can't seem to get the left and right lines. I tried: this for the left side line, but it did not work (no line showed up):

How can I achieve the 3 Lines around the button?
I got goal to achieve, 3d cube manipulated with mouse with gradient filling on each wall.
I found some source codes coresponding to gradients and 3d rotating cube but here is the problem:
When i put these two things together the effect looks like the cube was a wireframe with transparency to some gradient background hidden behind the first plane solid black background. Gradient always stays still.
Method which rotates/displays cube got at input three parameters rotx .roty, rotz i'd like to make use of it and apply it to gradients displayed on each side. gradient got own matrix but i don't have a clue how and when manipulate this gradient to get desired effect - i mean transform/rotate gradient in way ro look like it is painted on side of cube and tranform along to it 3d position.
here is source for gradient [URL]

Starting from a central square Sprite, I want to randomly add squares to any of the available sides, as per this handy diagram: The basic code I've scratched up is below, which just tweens out three squares from the central square. I'd like each newly-created square to potentially spit out up to two squares at a time, if two free sides are available.

View 1 RepliesIf you have an image whose sides are even for example 48 x 24 you may do this and you are just fine:
matrix.translate(-24, -12);
matrix.rotate(Math.PI);
matrix.translate(24, 12);
But if you have an image of size something like 49 x 25, then there is a problem with those odd pixels, how to compute when and where to add or remove those odd pixels so image gets allways perfectly rotated?

I have two rectangles and I want to draw a Line between them.The problem is as follows: I need to select which sides to draw between.What I remember of the algorithm is that you start by drawing a imagined line between the centres of the two rectangles. From that it is possible to calculate which sides are intersected by this line. Chose these sides as start and end for the actual line.
